“Love it.”

Bonnie K.
11/15/24

I had a problem (turns out I was wrong), but they promptly replied, explained the situation, and even gave me some credit. I have used it for years. It is nice being able to get real cash for things that you are already buying.

“Non-existent customer support”

Joe R.
11/23/24

I don't think anyone in their customer "support" department actually reads the questions you send them, and, if they do read them, they do their best to frustrate you with irrelevant non-answers. All they are capable of is firing off some standard answers from their answer sheet that matches a word or two from your inquiry

Hello, I downloaded this app because a friend showed it to me and then referred me. We did all the proper steps to use referal code and then since I have used app so much I have gotten 70$ back in two months. My main two issues with app are: the customer service is horrible. Takes days and sometimes weeks to get a responce ans a lot of times they send you articlws to read, which is not what you want. You want your issue to be solved or credit to be given that is missing. Also the friend referral is either scam or they do not want to honor it. Person who referred me two months ago never get her 5$ and now 3 days ago I referred a friend, who used the app, and they never honored it. My last straw was when I did a liquore store purchase of 1.75L smirnoff for the 3$ rebate and got reciete from store. Ibotta told me it was not a valid reciete. Well ladies and gentleman I dont know how much more valid it can get or wha they want from me because that is what the store gave me. So i did everything right on my part and they never paid me. Then they took the whole offer away next day. Once again, poor customer service, do not honor their friend referral and now telling me that my store reciete is nof valid which was from a actual liquore store.

I leave the house and check my "any item" offers, deciding where to shop the night before my 20 dollar "join" redemption ends. They were set to expire in six hours. I return home a couple of hours later to redeem, one receipt redeems just fine. Cool, 9 more offers to go/something similar and I get the 20 bucks... WRONG. The second receipt is photographed, it wouldn't redeem my ay item offer. So, I went back to search the store the other ways it shows up; the any item category was gone... I search stores for my other receipts; 1 product shows up under the any item for all the other stores instead of that generic receipt icon that should be there. When I left the house, my 20 dollar bonus was set to expire at 1:59 AM. I hit "any item" on a couple more stores, the only one that shows the offer the correct way says it expires in two hours. Great, I have a receipt from there. I click it, it says "not available" on a red icon after jumping pages. I go back to my 20 bonus offer and click it, and it shows the same message for the first time. I still have time before that bonus expires, right this very second. It seems pretty scammy, so I search "any item" in general search, and the same 1 product that took over the general any item receipt category shows up: a mixer set for alcoholic drinks. There website also says you don't need a barcode, so why does it ask for one and produce offers that are product specific for scanning and not any item before the expiration of the any item offer... They didn't want to cash out on the bonus and they removed any item close to bonus check out time to reduce the refunds given. Deceptive.

I have been emailing Ibotta customer service since Oct 2017 because I can't withdraw funds from my account due to my cell phone number got deactivated and do not have a working phone. I have emailed them at least 20/30 emails and they say that the only way you can withdraw funds is through the app, but the app does not let me log in. Everytime, i login to app it keeps giving me error "OOPS... Forbidden". I have the most updated app and the operating system. I tried downloading app on galaxy S6, HTC U11, samsung note 3 etc, but the app does not let me log in... it seems like they have BLOCKED my account. Their customer service is so worst that they do NOT understand my problem. Not sure where to go and who else to complain. I do not like to bring the issues to the internet, but this is ridiculous and it is so frustrating since the emails are going back and forth between me and ibotta since Oct 2017. I even asked them to send me the check of my earnings and they say NO. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS CHEATER COMPANY to anyone.

After 6 mos, Ibotta has started to more frequently reject credits on "unreadable" receipts. Check BBB
